Solution

http://gpwiki.org/index.php/Game_Content_Resources - Game programming wiki contains some good links for game resources (sprites, animations, 3D models, sounds, icons, textures and more)

- Charas Sprite Generators

- GameDev .Net - Forum Thread: Sprites, sprites and more sprites!

- VB Explorer - Free sprite sets, bottom right corner of the page.

- RPG2000 Life is imagination - A german site with TONS of RPG related artwork. The site is easy enough to navigate even though it's in german.

- Ari Feldman SpriteLib_GPL - SpriteLib_GPL (SpriteLib General Public License) Copyright (c) 1996-2002 by Ari Feldman

- Molotov.nu - Mostly old-school RPG and Nethack-like graphics.

- Lost Garden - Various free graphics for various genres under "Free game graphics". Good quality.

Problem

I am developing a game. To test my map engine, I need pictures of 8 directions character walking. As a programming, it is not too difficult to write program, but it is a big problem for me to draw pictures. So my question is where can I find some free pictures for game developing? Pictures should be free because I might release some demo version on internet or somewhere. Thanks.
